Since the fall of the Soviet Union the Communist party in Russia is still making moves, according to the Russian Times. Party members are hoping to push new legislation calling to cut out the middle men who fund various parties during elections. The Communist party in Russia is hoping to pass legislation to remove foreign donations, and also make it mandatory for donors to keep receipts and become public. The problem is expected to be resolved quickly, though in the Russian constitution political parties are granted the right to control their income without government interference.
